CASE : THE NATIONAL GLOBE COMPANY
The National Globe Company of Calcutta put in an advertisemnt in the ‘Situation Vacant` column of the Statesman in April, 1970 for a typist in their Typing Secion in the grade of Rs. 160-10-350 (exclusive of dearness allowance) The office of the company was flooded with applications from all over the country. After screening of applications strictly on the basis of qualifications only twelve applicants were called for interview. Ten days after the interview Rain Dhin, 25 years old and a graduate of the BiharUniversity, received an appointment letter from the company.
Ram Dhin joined the company on June 1, 1970. He was asked to report to the Section Officer-incharge of the Typing Section. Ram Dhin was on probation for a period of six months.
During the first month, it was observed that Ram Dhin did his work on time and intelligently. According to one filling clerk he grasped his work so quickly and easily that it made some of his colleagues green with envy. Usually, after having finished his own assignments, he helped other people in the Section.
After about six months when the probation period was over, the Section Officer noticed that Ram Dhin started leaving his room too often. Having observed Ram Dhin for about a week in his new habit, the Section Officer, Mr. Saksena, called him in his room.
Saksena: Ram Dhin, I see you leaving your seat too often these days.
Rani Dhin: When I finish my work, I go to the canteen to take my tea.
